Nice Hotel. Only downside is the housekeeping. They won't make your up until you make a request. That didn't work great for me. Otherwise... It's a great place to live. And I prefer this hotel when I visit Kuwait

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Some incredible places for food, and the road ways are improving vastly. Really friendly people, and exciting growth for a country

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveller

Nothing like Dubai or even Qatar or Abu Dhabi....avoid!

3/5 - Okay

ATJ

Kuwait isn’t a leisure destination for me personally but if you are going I’d try and avoid between May and September as it’s so hot.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Although traffic is awful, I was in a minor crash in a taxi, the country shows promise, with lots of investment going into infrastructure. In years to come, I think it shows exciting promise but now... I wouldn't rush back... The JACC is a must
